Building Teams that Make Great Things Happen with Leadership Expert, Yves Doucet

In this episode, Roxanne Derhodge engages in a deep conversation with Yves Doucet about the role of authenticity in leadership. They discuss challenges in Doucet's timesheet company, potential misuses of authenticity, and the impact of energy transmission in communication. They delve into the importance of open-heartedness, the effects of authenticity on productivity, and Doucet's transformative experience with yoga. The episode ends with a discussion on introspection and Doucet's book.

Great teams don’t just happen, they need to be cultivated, nurtured and cared for. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome CEO, Yves Doucet who will share his inspiration and ideas for creating a team that is highly functional, greatly motivated and enjoys the atmosphere and culture that has been created by using some basic principles of energy and quantum physics.

By official title, Yves is the CEO and co-founder of a thriving timesheet company called Dovico, but he would preferably be named a "Culture Coach." As Dovico's "Culture Coach," Yves helps his team find their passion and matches it with business. He genuinely believes that if the team is working aligned with their values, there is no obstacle to ingenuity and growth -both personally and professionally.

Fast forward 26 years later, Dovico has world-class customers from all over the world! We have a flexible work environment and are committed to work-life balance. Working with a fun and passionate team every day, driving results, and creating meaningful work experiences. Our culture centers around values of Leadership, Getting Customers Back to Work, Courage and Respect.
